But Im sure you will give the UN the oh-so preferential benefit of the doubt.


Abbas is the terrorist who hijacked an italian liner, then murdered american-jew Klinghoffer, then dumped him in the sea, and ran a pro-palistinian terrorist group from Iraq.

Zarquawi

In June 2002, U.S. officials say intelligence had revealed that Zarqawi and members of al-Qaida had set up a weapons lab at Kirma, in northern Iraq, producing deadly ricin and cyanide. Some reports say He recuperated from his leg injury in Baghdad.

And I resent the conservative or Rush comment. Would you be annoyed if I said you got all your "rumors" out of Michael Moore's bloated and corpulent ass?

TEXT: US GRAND JURY INDICTMENT AGAINST USAMA BIN LADEN

United States District Court
Southern District of New York

http://www.fas.org/irp/news/1998/11/98110602_nlt.html

"Additionally, the indictment states that Al Qaeda reached an agreement with Iraq not to work against the regime of Saddam Hussein and that they would work cooperatively with Iraq, particularly in weapons development."

I would hope that Al Gore , if he had been president after 9/11, would have done the same thing and held Hussein accountable for his actions. Hussein harbored Zarquawi, Abbas, and many more. He harbored Terrorists, and was breaking 17 U.N. Violations. If you can't hold this peice of sh*t accountable, why ever make cease fire treaties again? We didnt know for sure what he was doing because he kicked out the inspectors, and when he let them back in, ONLY after we threatened force, he was sitll hiding somehting. And now we find that he, Hussein, was bribing officials in the U.N. with the food for oil programs, including high level French, German , and Russian Officials. At the time, Libya was the chair on WMD non-proiliferation, and now, Sudan is the chair on the council for Human Rights. waht a joke. Cmon, guys, if it was someone else in the Whitehouse, wouldnt you be waving your flags and proud of freeing 20 million people from a dictator, and taking the fight to the region where militant Islamists consider murdering thier wives when they are raped an "honor killing? Remember who the real enemies are.


And Matrix Revolutions sucked ass.
